at this point, i think we should just mention that these are the result of our expanding on a mod we kindly received from online squad JFC, so they (not sure exactly which guys) deserve a special nod for the original idea, and also big thanks to them for sharing it with us here at SAS.
thanks, vikshloss and JFC squad! :D

Post by: Gaston on October 24, 2011, 02:08:04 PM

So... installed everything as requested : crash of the game at 85 %... anybody else has same problem ?

Anyway... I hope this mod will be included in the next DBW and UP versions (DBW 1.7 and UP3RC5) !!!

Title: Re: Vehicles ... and trailers ! (package 1 & 2)
Post by: SAS~Malone on October 24, 2011, 02:24:29 PM

what kind of crash, Gaston?
if it's a memory crash, you might well have reached your limit for extra classfiles.
this issue will hopefully be addressed to some degree, with DBW 1.7 and the next executable selector.

Title: Re: Vehicles ... and trailers ! (package 1 & 2)
Post by: Gaston on October 24, 2011, 02:59:51 PM

This is what I think, Malone... toomany of these classfiles in ma game ! I tried it in UP3, which I have also modded with other planes, maps, etc... but does not load.

So I will wait ! Hopefully, this interesting mod will be included in DBW 1.7...

By the way... this new selector... will it run on Win XP ? or will it need Win 7 ?

Title: Re: Vehicles ... and trailers ! (package 1 & 2)
Post by: Kopfdorfer on October 24, 2011, 03:37:59 PM

THis is a fantastic mod Epervier!

Next step : code the game to be able to unhook/unload during a mission!!

Well Done!

Everything is so great, Epervier, that I don't know if waiting until DBW 1.7 is released to see if it's included (as I guess) or installing right now. I can't wait to try them. Thanks a lot.

But we do have camels and zebras...   ;)

@Epervier: I really like this kind of details to the game.  8)
It opens a whole new perspective to other combinations like sheep in the back of a truck or some cows in the back of an open truck.
Or a row of people with horses carrying carts with all kind of stuff on it together with a few trucks etc to represent citizens escaping a city? This is not a request or anything, just a suggestion...
Great stuff what you've created!

Cheers, U.

Title: Re: Vehicles ... and trailers ! (package 1 & 2)
Post by: Epervier on October 25, 2011, 02:22:00 PM

It's an idea!
But it would change the skins of certain trucks, to make them more civil!
Change the 3D of a cart to put table and chairs, wardrobe, mattress, grandmother ...
And I can not do that!

A package 4 (horse artillery!) is in the works! A fifth in the making!

Post by: Pursuivant on October 25, 2011, 07:32:14 PM

Package 3 looks great. Horse-drawn vehicles are a much needed addition to the game.

But, one tiny criticism. The driver of the field kitchen should have something approaching a standard Wehrmacht uniform; the brown cap has got to go!

Since you're said that you're going to produce horse-drawn artillery, there are good pictures of horse-drawn WW2 artillery limbers (avant-train) and caissons here:

  http://www.lonesentry.com/manuals/handbook-japanese-military/artillery-equipment.html

  http://militaria.forum-xl.com/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=359

  http://cs.finescale.com/FSMCS/forums/p/118431/1185378.aspx

You might be able to get a good-looking artillery limber by taking the front part of the field kitchen and attaching it to a light- to medium howitzer. A light artillery gun would have a 2-4 horse team, while a medium gun might have a 6-8 horse team. Bigger guns would have bigger teams of horses, but more often they were pulled by artillery tractors or trucks if at all possible. Often there would be a passenger/co-driver next to the driver.

Finally, if you were inclined to do a Japanese or Soviet limber and gun, it would be a simple matter to retexture the stock German field kitchen limber in olive drab and change the driver's uniform.

Post by: SAS~Malone on October 26, 2011, 12:38:41 AM

guys, before we get carried away here, all these ideas are great, but please remember we are very limited with the 3d objects we have ingame.
i am trying to help Epervier by looking for other combinations, but it'd be really cool if someone who can do 3d work, can do a few more objects for us.
a perfect opportunity for any up-and-coming modder to help out, and get some practise before doing something as ambitious as a new plane.
anyways, for now, we will do what we can - we are well aware of the possible combinations, so please don't flood this thread with all your ideas just yet.
we will do what we can with what is currently available, but having a volunteer to help with some 3d objects, would be really welcomed at this point.
that aside, i'd like to see a float-parade with a whole bunch of bikini-clad supermodels on it! :D

Post by: slipper on October 26, 2011, 02:54:10 AM

Epervier

Absolutely great work mate, have not had time to try them yet but they look superb.

I noticed that you have towable AA guns, are their any plans to do vehicle drawn artillery? Such as anti-tank guns and 150mm howitzer.

regards

slipper

Title: Re: Vehicles ... and trailers ! (package 1 & 2)
Post by: Epervier on October 26, 2011, 03:26:38 AM

Thank you for your comments and your ideas!
Do not forget:
- I do not work on the skins and I can not create 3D objects.
- I use the standard objects of the game by removing the superfluous but some items require more changes.
- It is obvious that ALL guns (AA or not) will not be added to this Mod.

To my limited knowledge of 3dsMax, AA guns were easier to add. The heavy guns require major changes ... but the option to add is not excluded.
The front of the mobile kitchen is already modified for use as housing for the horse artillery. Only two, maybe three guns will be hypomobile.

The skin looks very nice, but the chain is too shiny. Chrome was a scarce metal for both Axis and Allies during WW2, they wouldn't have wasted it on cosmetic uses like plating.

woah, duuuude... the plane on the left of the boom...
i hope the pilot did not suffer.

and the shooter must have suffered too. loosing a teammate like that... :(

very informative footage though. these men, wether blue or red, were courageous. some proper balls of steel pictures.
except where the guy kept shooting at the out-of-control 109. i thought that was... disturbing.
but such were the days.

great find.

Diving Hawk, thanks for the support, and for the initial mod that kicked it all off.
Most thanks would go to Epervier, who did the hard graft, i was just the instigator/motivator role, lol :D

Do you know... in Japan A6M were carried from Mitsubishi/Nakajima factories to navy airbases by bull-pulling very slowly wagons?

WWII time roads in Japan were not paved and stony, speedy tracks were badly shaken and made airplanes broken.

I haven't been able to install Build 1.71 successfully yet but can state categorically that they are NOT included in that build. Install them as per usual with their own folder(s) within the #DBW folder and the text inserts for chief.ini, stationary.ini, technics.ini and, technics_ru.properties.

Of note, all these objects and more are included in the CLEAN DBW Modding JGME Packs (RE-RELEASE!) (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,19921.0.html) for DBW 1.7.1.  Specifically see the #DBW_MOD_Static_DAF pack as  it contains all SAS~Epervier's new object sets along with bonus content from WingFlyer!  To top it off, be sure to grab Monty's Desert Air Force Campaign (https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,23491.0.html) as it has many of these new objects active!

Post by: Epervier on April 26, 2012, 01:10:01 AM

Yes !
If you think this object is required to play a campaign or mission, I can advise you:
- Keep all lines in the files chief - stationary - etc...
- Delete the contents of \3do\Cars\Chariot03\
- Copy the contents of the folder \3do\Cars\Chariot02\ or \3do\Cars\Chariot\
- Paste the contents into the folder \3do\Cars\Chariot03\

The object will exist, but another form!

70%, you do not write correctly the lines in the files chief - stationary - technics.ini !

This has been an ongoing issue of mine for ages now with this game. when it comes to editing chief.ini or stationary.ini I can sometimes get it right and have no issues. but sometimes i wreck the whole process. In theory I understand that (or believe to be) these files "lines" must be carefully placed and spaced. If there was an easier way of copying and pasting over these files, then everyone would be doing it. I ran into the option of a mod that adds objects to my install and i just froze up. this is the scariest part of modding for me. And I'm pretty clueless on understanding the log.lst , logkeep yada yada. I haven't got there yet with that understanding. When i add stuff to stationary or chief, i basically evenly space the lines according to how i think they should be by carefully following what is already in the files. Then there are times that i try and add stuff and it will throw one section off like 10 spaces leaving me dumbfounded. The other question is, can we just throw these sections anywhere in there? Does USSR have to be with other like items? But then again, I'm sure it doesn't have to be "that" difficult. Could you jedi explain an easier route or at least guide me to a template to understand better? Tango Mike. S!

I guess I'll quote myself because i was hoping for an answer on this lol. I'm still largely confused to adding stuff to chief, stationary, etc. it's the easiest way to crash a game so i usually dont mess with it but hey, if someone creates a mod pack, i wont complain. i think wind started it but i dont know if he has anything new brewing.

Thank you for the tip Mick, I will paint some new wheel rims for that gun on wheels. It does look a bit strange with
the current version and is not looking historical. It´s not my fault, I did not do them.
New wheel rims are needed and will be on it very soon.
I just wished I had more time in my day to retexture these things faster.

You are right...
But why have I taken Maultier?
Because :
- The Sdkfz 7 does not exist in the game
- The trailer for this gun does not exist in the game

So I made a vehicle "that may have existed" but which can not pretend a model that really exist.  8)

Dear Epervier, certainly Sd.Ktz.7 not exist in the game but both Sd.Ktz 6 and the Sd.Ktz.10 certainly exist .. and they are both in static version that veichles version .. the first tractor seems perfect as it  ! Or maybe there is some insurmountable technical difficulty to attack them to the AA  88mm gun ?
Thanks for the reply.

I have never seen pics of a SdKfz 10 towing a Flak/Pak 18  88 mm, simply because the gun was too heavy for the task, but there are numerous pics of SdKfz 6 towing that gun ...

The SdKzf  6 really looks like the SdKzf 7, so it is the most appropriate choice I think ...  ;)

... CQFD ...! ;)

Le SdKzf 6 est le meilleur choix, car le plus proche du 7 ...  ;)

... et de plus, dans la vraie vie, il a réellement tracté le Flak/Pak 18 ...


... QED ...! ;)

The SdKzf 6 is the best choice, because it is closer to the 7 ... ;)

... and moreover, in real life it did tow the Flak/Pak 18 ...

It looks a little small for its size. but it does sound like a nice idea. I like that.
I thought we had a bigger version already.
Perhaps I need to look into my game vehicles once again.

... well in fact production of the SdKfz 6 was terminated in 42, because it was regarded as too expensive, and the cheaper to produce SdKfz 11 took over ...  ;)

Thanks for the links Mick. Very interesting.
I doubt it was called "expensive". From what I read in history books, the third reich had loads of extra money to spend on such things with no problems.
The money was probably going to crazy weird projects, like the "Maus" , for example  :D

There are some strange looking half-tracks in that website which I posted in my last post.
Some had cannon turrets like a tank. Interesting concept.

Anyway, I have now finished doing all the needed file fixes and Epervier has added some very nice shadows to all Maultier models,
once I finish giving these Maultier half-tracks some proper skins, I will be moving on to other much needed fixing of other vehicles.
I will soon be fixing up these "Zugkraftwagen" series we now have and giving each one some much needed upgrades for us to enjoy them
in our maps.
All missions and campaigns for the IL2-1946 which use these new vehicles are now looking so much better!

... well may be the word "expensive" meant: very time consuming to produce, and also too many complicated parts ...  ;)

The Wehrmacht badly needed those half tracks, to the point that many of them were used to tow much heavier loads than they were supposed to ...

Hi peeps - bit confused are these just repaints of stuff thats already in CUP? If so do we need to alter the .ini files?

I am not sure if the guys from CUP are upgrading their game version as these posts are being made.
Look at the screenshots from teh first post and then look at the vehicles you now have in your game.
Do they look the same?

You will notice there are some differences now with these new upgrades from Epervier.
